Real world issues.

Read about real issues like how refusing vaccinations is affecting human herd immunity, and apps that use crowdsourcing to collect biodiversity data.

Connecting biology with the world today.

Chapters conclude with an 'Application' feature that discusses a current societal issue, connecting biology with information that is currently circulating in the news or on social media.

On-page glossary supports reading comprehension.

Providing immediate assistance, the on-page running glossary offers most definitions in slightly different wording from the text. Having all terms in one place is also useful as a study guide.
